Today I doubled back from the workout yesterday to get in a long run. I met Ron and Jason at about 6am as Ron was doing MP pace. I felt good early but the middle was rough. I ended on a huge hill and the last 4-5 miles were 615 ish. I stepped on a rock with a few minutes to go. Really rolling my ankle. It seems to be much better now 11am.
My thoughts about my current fitness are dominated by 1 it's still really early 2 the weather hasn't been good for a nice long stretch. 3. I have stretched a 13 week peak into 15 weeks. So I guess that is the same as number 1. It is funny because I almost fret about this. I have gone from being worried about it to coaching myself to be patient and back again 1000 times. The mileage is the only change I am willing to make at this point. Dropping down a 5-10 mile run a week will hopefully get my body back and then get my head to follow. Press on. Press on.
One thing I really learned from last fall is patience. I just need to believe that it will come back. progression is happening.
